Anil Ambani plans foray into TV channel business
Anil Ambani is planning to make an entry into the broadcasting business, the final piece in the media chain where he had so far stayed out.
On his radar is the launch of an entertainment business channel through Adlabs Films, the listed company where he acquired a majority stake in mid-2005.
"We are considering it and have given the proposal for the launch of an entertainment business channel. But the board has to approve of it," Adlabs chairman and managing director Manmohan Shetty tells Indiantelevision.com.
The idea is to capitalise on the contacts that Shetty has with the film industry and synergise content with Adlabs' film production business. The channel would also provide information on the gross earnings from box office collections and other financial data.
Shetty, however, did not wish to talk on the content front, saying "it was too early to talk about anything" till the go-ahead signal was given for launching the channel.
Adlabs has ambitious plans for animation. In the pipeline is a 3D feature film, Superstar, with Southern actor Rajnikanth's Ochre Studios which is slated for release in April 2008. The second animation project is a feature based on the characters Gini & Jony, who represent one of the top brands in children apparel in India.

If Anil Ambani actually makes Adlabs the vehicle for entry into entertainment space, and if he does it will reasonable honesty, then Adlabs can also go anywhere in the next 3-5 years. The thing with Ambani duo is that their ambition is almost unlimited. They keep on getting into interesting areas and generating wealth.

Now I know why Anil Ambani is so energetic!!! He would like to use his reliance energy customer database to tap the DTH market is what I could think.

This is completely baseless.How can board of Reliance Energy understand DTH market.It will come either from Adlabs or their gaming division known as Reliance Entertainment.Reliance energy have customers only in some parts of Mumbai.
